Specific features of interactions of polyvinylpyrrolidone molecules with zinc and silver ions in aqueous solutions according to IR spectroscopy data

Aqueous solutions containing polyvinylpyrrolidone and zinc and silver nitrates are studied by IR spectroscopy. It is shown that introduction of zinc and silver nitrates into polyvinylpyrrolidone solutions leads to a shift of the polymer absorption bands to lower wavenumbers. The results obtained indicate the possibility of formation of complexes consisting of polymer molecules and metal ions.
